KUALA LUMPUR — Prime Minister Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim has called on Malaysians to strengthen their resolve against hatred and nurture empathy as the nation marks Christmas.
In a Facebook post today, Anwar said Malaysia’s resilience stems from its unity in diversity, particularly among its multi‑religious and multi‑racial communities.
He emphasised that the MADANI Government believes harmony is not accidental but cultivated through fair policies, equal opportunities and a culture of mutual understanding.
“In a world facing economic uncertainty, humanitarian conflicts and social divisions, Malaysia has chosen the path of unity, dialogue and mutual respect as the foundation for shaping the nation’s future.
“True unity is reflected when every citizen is respected, protected and given the space to contribute to the country’s future,” Anwar said.
The Prime Minister also extended Christmas greetings to Christians, expressing hope that the celebration would bring peace, harmony and prosperity to the nation and all Malaysians.
Christmas is celebrated annually on 25 December. – December 24, 2025
